Key skills for this role
Design and build systems for API discovery, schema understanding, and safe agent-to-API orchestration at enterprise scale.
Own search, ranking, relevance, or query-planning problems central to how agents find and use the right APIs and data — this is core to the role, not a peripheral concern.
Prototype quickly, evaluate multiple algorithmic approaches, and iterate based on what you learn — priorities and direction can shift week to week as we learn from customer pilots.
Build and evaluate agentic systems: tool-calling frameworks, agent orchestration, and the observability/evaluation tooling needed to trust what agents are doing.
Collaborate closely with a small, high-context team where everyone influences architecture and direction — this is not a role with heavy process or deep management layers.
Engage with select enterprise customers piloting Constellation to understand real usage patterns and bring that insight back into the system design.
Communicate technical tradeoffs clearly to a small, technical leadership team and contribute to shaping the roadmap itself, not just executing against one.
